Question

Can someone tell me which limits i shud use for part b to find the area ?

Answer 1

-

Answer 2

well you need to solve

2x - 3 = 0

that is the zero of the curve...

and based on the diagram, the upper limit...

the area is below the curve so remember to use absolute values

Answer 3

Lower limit is: x = 0
Upper limit is: x = 3/2

Answer 4

@aum , @campbell_st why is the lower limit zero ?
why isnt it -3 ?

Answer 5

For any point on the y-axis, x = 0. The -3 is the y-intercept and not the x-value. The limits of integration goes from the y-axis (that is, x = 0) to where it crosses the x-axis (that is, x = 3/2).

Answer 6

Oh that was so stupid of me. So thankful @aum . Aprreciate it :)

Answer 7

np. You are welcome.
